My saloon 75 just failed MoT on a couple of holes in both outer sills and one on an inner. Now, they are being patched up temp just to get the ticket, but I am considerig sometime around easter next year getting a full set fitted. Can you advise me where i could get such, and what sort of moey are we talking about. Thanks

Get the sill repair panels from Tom Hobbs and find yourself a good welder.
Tom Hobbs worksmanship is 2nd to none. I bought replacement repair panels from him and you would never know mine had been replaced.

Hi Paul.
As above you could always drop tom a call and prebook your car in for next year, he may well be able to fit you in by then as he is very busy, he got mine in this year, which i was very grateful for.

I had a Tom Hobbs OSR repair panel fitted earlier this year, about £70. I got a local welder to fit it though and he did a superb job, you can't see where it was fitted.
